About the host
Hosted by Caroline Sharp
As soon as we first saw Le Caillau in September 2008 we knew that this was the property we had to buy. A 300 year old winery set in the heart of the best Cahors vines, it’s a peaceful location yet still close to many small villages and towns with plenty of activities on offer for holidaymakers.
Having both worked in London’s fast-paced marketing world for many years, we like a challenge and this is certainly a challenge albeit of a different kind and on a different scale. Along with our two girls Evie and Lilah we have thrown ourselves into French life, picking up the local dialect, haggling with local artisans and enjoying far too much local wine and cheese.
We have transformed Le Caillau into a unique destination both for locals and holidaymakers with the Café & Pottery Painting Atelier plus the luxury gite.
Le Caillau was love at first sight for us – we think it will be for you too.
We look forward to welcoming you soon.
